Look in Disk Management at the partition flags.
"system" is where all the boot files are.
That's probably the drive you're trying to remove.
If so. Use EasyBCD 2.0 > BCD Backup/repair > Change boot drive.
Point it to your W7 partition when it asks.
Change the BIOS to boot from the W7 HDD.
Reboot
W7 should now be "system" "active" and "boot", and the other HDD removable.
